Introduction

Hi, I’m Mikaela, a speech-language pathologist with a diverse background in medical, school, and private practice settings. I’ve worked with individuals across the lifespan—from early intervention with toddlers to adults recovering from strokes, brain injuries, and neurodegenerative disorders. My experience includes supporting children and adults with speech sound disorders, language delays, auditory processing challenges, fluency, autism, and intellectual disabilities. I bring a compassionate, creative, and engaging approach to therapy, always striving to uplift those I work with. My goal is to help every client communicate with confidence and joy.

Whether working with young children or adults, I strive to create a positive, uplifting environment where clients feel supported and empowered in their communication journey.

I am passionate about helping individuals improve their communication skills while creating a fun, supportive, and encouraging environment where they can thrive.

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mikaela at valley of the moon speech therapy. My son worked with her, and the progress he made was incredible. From day one, Mikaela was warm, patient, and truly invested in his success. What stood out most was how she tailored each session to fit my sons unique needs and personality . He always left feeling proud and excited, which made practicing at home so much easier. His improvement in his speech and confidence has been amazing—family and friends have noticed too! Communication with parents was excellent— Mikaela kept me informed about his goals, shared helpful tips for practice, and celebrated every milestone right along with us. If you’re looking for a speech therapist who is skilled, compassionate, and genuinely cares about your child’s growth, I wholeheartedly recommend Mikaela. We’re so grateful for everything she done for our family!

    Mikaela is the absolute best! In just a matter of weeks, my son went from frustrated and lashing out to happy and proud of his rapidly expanding vocabulary. Mikaela is a treasure and so talented at what she does!
